Mr. Keith Simpson

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence which Minister in his Department is responsible for answering defence procurement questions. [1988]

Day-to-day responsibility for defence procurement matters lies with the Minister of State for Defence Procurement. In this House, responsibility for answering questions on his behalf on these matters will normally fall to my hon. Friend the Under-Secretary of State.
